1996 Web Aesthetics - Old Skool Design Hot Again (GALLERY)
Old Skool Design Hot Again

As a backlash to the ultra sleek, sophistication of corporate web pages, young creative web designers are returning to a more primitive web era. The 1996 aesthetics are popping up on art, photography, fashion and music sites.

Good examples can be found at :

 Their aesthetic, sometimes referred to as "dirt style," is visually hyperactive and almost willfully antagonistic: a riot of animated GIFs, tiled backgrounds, underlined blue hyperlinks, images with borders, and old-school blink tags. (Jesse Ashlock, I-D magazine). (idonline)
